Travellers who enjoy nothing more than taking to the open seas on a sailing vessel may want to make sure that they are in Pattaya at the end of April. From April 30th until May 4th, the Thai town will be playing host to the Top of the Gulf Regatta.

Sailing fans are promised four days of racing, with ten or more classes of vessel taking part. Ray Roberts, winner of the Coronation Cup in 2009, is intending to return to Pattaya with his own boat this year, according to the organisers.

As well as a number of entrants from all over the world, the Top of the Gulf Regatta attracts a large number of Thai vessels, giving locals an opportunity to showcase their sailing prowess.
